It runs, but freezes when i tried to install seamonkey-1.1 via quickpet.
The lupumini on the 256MB RAM loads both the 121MB main SFS plus the 35MB Z-drive on the RAM at a time.
That is the same as the lupu with the 155MB main SFS, and they freezes when installing browser pets.

Anyway, I do not think the lupu is appropriate for 256MB RAM without swap.
One of the reason is the lupu does not have full featured browser, and it is a concept of the lupu._________________Downloads for Puppy Linux http://shino.pos.to/linux/downloads.html

On low ram (256MB) computers.
I think, if you make a save file and boot using it, you can get large programs to install with no problems._________________I have found, in trying to help people, that the things they do not tell you, are usually the clue to solving the problem.

When you have a convenience, could you please add the corresponding MD5 check sum to either your post in page 158 or your download space at mediafire site.

After my first contact with Linux in 2007, e.g. Fedora, Ubuntu's, Mandriva and DSL, and in 2009, with Puppy 4.2, becoming Linux only user and addicted to Puppy … and Lupu-528 from its very beginning, of course I learned some tweaks from the forum that, at least for me, are indispensable:

The file you would need to edit isolinux.cfg. Change the last line from "pmedia=cd" to "pmedia=ataflash". The easiest way to do this is:
a) extract isolinux.cfg from Lupu 5.2
b) edit the file as above
c) get a version of puppy that has ISOMaster in it.
d) use isomaster to replace the isolinux.cfg in the puppy iso with the one you just edited
e) save the new iso, and then burn it.

And if I remember well, to get it to work I needed to instal pet “pupsaveconfig 1.9.9”. There may be a new version:

EDIT: I can't find anymore where I have read, some two years ago, that “pupsaveconfig 1.9.9.pet” was necessary.

As I would like very much not to go through the steps to have these tweaks implemented on every new version of Puppy that I try and as I think these tweaks would be of interest for everyone, may I suggest to have them added to Lupu 528.6?

- standardization of the mounted drive icons to provide the "X box" for unmounting (yay!)
- addition of momanager for internationalization support

Please tell me if I need to add more to assist translation. Although it is not practical to internationalize everything in lupu, I am willing to add packages of internationalized versions of specific applications, if they are not dependent on kernels later than 2.6.33. Just request them.

However....... none of the 528 versions I tried would boot on the k6-2. Attempted 528,528.004 and 528.005 as well as a couple of rerwin's updated versions.....pfix=ram,pfix=nocopy,default boot made no difference ....all had kernel panic.

Lucid Puppy 5.2.8 is the fastest, friendliest, and most fun Lucid yet. It is the fastest because it is the first Lucid derivative to use the C and ffmpeg libraries optimized for i686 computers rather than the older i386 computers.

Apparently, everything compiled as C programs are potentially the cause of the problem, specifically if they use the "cmov" instruction introduced with the i686 architecture.

Maybe substituting some of the compiled programs with versions from 525 would work around the issue. The first area to examine is the bootup process, to find the C programs involved, to get past the kernel panic. We could probably live without programs dependent on ffmpeg (video processing) in those older machines. Anyone up for that? Once they are identified, I could build an ISO for the hybrid.

First added a few items and remastered. looks ok
Problem with pburn 3.7.18 creating the remastered iso
after line = fixating time =xxxxs
following appeared
wodim:fifo had 3611 puts and 3611 gets
wodim: fifo was 0 times empty and 3405 times full, min fill was 94
BURN-Free was never needed

then screen locked up. Only option was ctrl, alt, backspace, then restart x
to clear the pburn screen
